Bayhaqi Q17794 — The basis of the obligation of jihad

قَالَ اللهُ جَلَّ ثَنَاؤُهُ: {كُتِبَ عَلَيْكُمُ الْقِتَالُ وَهُوَ كُرْهٌ لَكُمْ وَعَسَى أَنْ تَكْرَهُوا شَيْئًا وَهُوَ خَيْرٌ لَكُمْ وَعَسَى أَنْ تُحِبُّوا شَيْئًا وَهُوَ شَرٌّ لَكُمْ} [البقرة: 216]، مَعَ مَا ذُكِرَ فِيهِ فَرْضُ الْجِهَادِ مِنْ سَائِرِ الْآيَاتِ فِي الْقُرْآنِ.
Allah, exalted be His praise, says: "Fighting has been prescribed for you though it is hateful to you; and it may be that you dislike a thing while it is good for you, and it may be that you love a thing while it is bad for you." [Surah al-Baqarah: 216]
Along with this, there are other verses of the Noble Qur'an in which the obligation of jihad is mentioned.
